Madsonic Support

I would like to see some development for the Windows crowd as I am really a Windoze guy. I have an ASUS T100 Transformer tablet running Win 8.1 and would like to test a true Windows app for it. I have been using Android on my phone, but only because I couldn't find the size and quality I was looking...

I just updated to the 5.1 final and notice that the Random play que doesn't seem to be working. I tried various inputs but cannot get a play que to populate. I have tried all random functions, which did not work? I do not understand exactly what isn't working: Album random, PlayQueue random, Playli...

Yes - that is what I'm seeing. The random playlist isn't generating.

Small update: still not got to bottom of this, but noticed some folders appear correctly, whilst others just appear as album name (in the same parent folder/folder location/drive). My only hope now is that it is (for some strange reason) a 'feature' that's been disabled in the beta, but surely make...

I just spent a few minutes rereading the thread to see if there was a clue to what is causing your problems, but there isn't enough information to point you in a specific direction. Here are some ideas that may help clarify a few things. What platform is your server on? Is your server working with o...

OK - I'll try one last time. I don't use Linux very often, but every installation has a transcode directory. On Linux installations I believe it gets installed in the var/madsonic/transcode or /var/subsonic/transcode directory if that hasn't been changed yet in the latest Linux distro. In any event ...

Progress continues on the Silicon Dust hdhr integration. I have it working as a prototype alpha on one of my servers. Hopefully testing will enable it to get integrated in a beta release soon.

Have you placed the latest transcode files into the transcode directory? What platform are you on?

People who whine and complain?

LOL

Just kidding - welcome to the forum.

I've always had mine set up that way.

Sort albums by foldernames - This should do what it says, it should set up browsing by foldername, i.e. Abba, Beatles, Cream etc. - best set up for this option is to have files organized as X:\Music\Artist\Album\tracks Sort MediaFile Folder Selector - I think this just organizes your media Folder Se...

LOL - :o So many changes so fast! I'm running to keep up... What a great time to be a Madsonic fan! Got a whole lot of things working well now. I'm taking a few days to go through every menu screen and relearn everything. I'll document whatever glitches I find and report. Bravo on the progress - gre...

My readings on the issue indicate that there hasn't been a lot of interest in this area and that the attempts over at Subsonic haven't gone all that well. I don't know if the developer here has plans for a Windows app. I can't even begin to speculate about compatibility, but there are 2 apps listed ...

Thanks for the update. Just a heads up on the Silicon Dust project. I also noticed this morning that I can't see the file type "hdrun" after adding it in the Settings/General - Video files. Also, when I tried to transplant the modified TranscodingService.class file from our successful test...

I hadn't heard of TVHeadend prior to your post, but I have had some success getting live TV into Subsonic getting the stream directly off my Silicon Dust HDHR. I do have a demo set up at http://television.subsonic.org where a guest account is active. just use guest for user and password. The site ma...

That depends... Madsonic 5.0 - if I'm not mistaken - still uses the subsonic.xxx naming in the data files. The Techdemo beta uses madsonic.xxx so it's easier to setup a dual installation sub/mad sonic on one server. Of course all this can get confusing depending on which OS you're on. I was able to ...

I keep going back to "Back in Black" I like the darker themes as they lower eye strain/fatigue. I prefer the dark, simple, and clean look over the bright and glitzy. Haven't tried every theme, but after browsing most of them I keep becoming more and more convinced that once you go "Ba...

No.
No.
No.

It's not you or just your imagination... One of the most vexing issues with all Subsonic forks and apps has been video playback stability. Once you get it working, it seems that almost anything can break it. Anything includes, OS, Java, Android, or any other update that can happen - sometimes withou...
